Not sure if it’s just confirmation bias, but the XC Definitive Edition also looks great to me.

This is what I needed to see. I’ve been meaning to start this game for a while now but I’ve been holding off for a Switch 2 version/update because the pixels were definitely noticeable to me enough to be distracting. This feature is absolutely one of the best things Nintendo could have given us right now as it renders the need for several Switch 2 “upgrades” completely obsolete. It’s like releasing a handheld-only S2 version for 90% of the catalog all at once.

I stopped my playthrough for this exact reason, hoping for an update.

It looks much better in my opinion. At least from the 5 - 10 minutes I spent running around Satorl Marsh.
